Foundations - Patristic Era

Living Communion

The Church begins to expand in the early centuries after Christ's Ascension, transforming the cultures in which it exists.

[There is an episode on the early Church chronologically before this that will be uploaded at a later date!]

Takeaways:

Matt - Assess one area of materialism or consumerism in your personal life and transform that into an opportunity to give alms.

Mark - The early Church fathers combined intellectual contemplation and action, seeing them as intrinsically linked

Louis - Learn about one of the fathers - St. Gregory of Nyssa, St. John Chrysostom, or St. Basil - and imitate them in living charity and contemplation
